Wine OR Wine & Food

Wines taste different from each other because they are made from different grapes. Just as a Granny Smith apple tastes different than a McIntosh apple, wines made from Merlot, Chardonnay, and others each have unique flavors that are derived primarily from those grapes. This class will focus on a different grape each week, and our goal will be to learn more about its aroma and flavor profile as we taste the wines made by different winemakers from around the world. This class has the added dimension of being a blind tasting, i.e., we will taste the wines randomly “in brown bags” in order to eliminate any preconceptions. The wine and materials fee for this 5-week program is $75 payable to the instructor on the first night of class.
